Automotive Manufacturing Chooses Agentless Linux EDR After Agent-Based Failures

The Challenge

When Linux servers manage just-in-time assembly line operations and automated guided vehicles across global manufacturing facilities, security tools can't compromise system stability. A crashed server doesn't just create a security incident: it halts production lines company-wide.

This is why competitive testing matters. During evaluation, an agent-based EDR solution crashed test servers twice, exhibited progressive memory growth, and sustained 80% CPU usage. For an automotive manufacturer operating 1,600 Linux servers across nearly 20 facilities, these failures proved that agent-based approaches introduced unacceptable operational risk.

The Solution

Sandfly's agentless platform was the only solution that met the requirements: comprehensive threat detection with zero production impact. No endpoint agents. No performance degradation. No stability risks.

The Results

16x expansion in Linux security coverage with zero production disruption.
